The point of armor/evasion is to add a bit of mitigation to the damage you do take, however, avoiding damage should always be your first priority since armor has diminishing returns and evasion is never a sure-fire method of avoiding damage.

Oh god, not casva and his shit again. Yes we already understand what you really want to say: "Melee characters should stay out of trouble just like ranged characters do". Stop plastering it on every god damned thread.

That's not what I was saying at all but ok.
I'm not even referencing other threads here. I've seen cleave and sweep builds pay off in maps, you just have to be careful about your positioning. I'll agree that there are certain areas that make that difficult but it's not like every map is a cake-walk for ranged. Talking from experience and all.

The salvation of melee lies in fleshing out the entrance charge mechanics. They need to be vastly less cumbersome to use and lock out ranged abilities.

There is nothing in this game that poses a problem to range, that doesn't pose a bigger problem to melee. Yes, every map is a easier for range. The game is designed that way, and it's dumb as shit.
